AND SHE'S OFF...

Chloee started school this week. It is full day Kindergarten here in Arizona...yep, I'm feeling anxiety! Of course, Chloee isn't...she is so excited to get there in the morning and when I go to pick her up, she wants to know why she can't stay longer! Her teacher's name is Mrs. Kittle and Chloee can't stop talking about how wonderful she is. I know that she will do great things and now I just pray that day by day this lump in my throat will fade.

CAMPING TRIP TO PATAGONIA LAKE

This summer...on Jared's Birthday weekend, we took a camping trip to Patagonia Lake. It sits a stones throw from the Mexico border. It was the first time we have ever taken Chloee camping and she had a blast! We rented paddle boats, swam, and played on the beach! Jared bought Chloee a Barbie fishing pole and then "attempted" to fish...unfortunately they never caught the "big one"! That didn't seem to bother Chloee, she thought it was the greatest thing ever! We did, however, bring back some really sweet memories and some not so sweet sunburns!

PRESCHOOL GRADUATION MAY 22, 2008

Chloee graduated from Preschool....I know, probably not a HUGE tragedy...but it broke my heart! My baby is not a baby, not even close! I love being her mom and I'm so glad she chose me! She will ALWAYS be MY baby!

A real tragedy, my camera broke right in the middle of the Graduation ceremony, so I had to use my camera phone, so the picture quality is not that great...but at least, I have something.

Chloee's teacher was Ms. Jackie. Chloee LOVED her and loved everything about Preschool, it was so exciting to watch her learn and experience new things. When we left the school that day...Chloee clung onto Ms. Jackie and they both started to cry. Of course I had no control and there was a whole mess of water works!
